LetG2706 no manG3367 despiseG2706 thyG4675 youthG3503; butG235 be thouG1096 an exampleG5179 of the believersG4103, inG1722 wordG3056, inG1722 conversationG391, inG1722 charityG26, inG1722 spiritG4151, inG1722 faithG4102, inG1722 purityG47.
ButG1161 I trustG1679 inG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 to sendG3992 TimotheusG5095 shortlyG5030 unto youG5213, thatG2443 I alsoG2504 may be of good comfortG2174, when I knowG1097 yourG5216 stateG4012. {But: or, Moreover}
AndG2532 sentG3992 TimotheusG5095, ourG2257 brotherG80, andG2532 ministerG1249 of GodG2316, andG2532 ourG2257 fellowlabourerG4904 inG1722 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547, toG1519 establishG4741 youG5209, andG2532 to comfortG3870 youG5209 concerningG4012 yourG5216 faithG4102:
For thisG5127 causeG5484 left IG2641 theeG4571 inG1722 CreteG2914, thatG2443 thou shouldest set in orderG1930 the things that are wantingG3007, andG2532 ordainG2525 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 cityG4172, asG5613 IG1473 had appointedG1299 theeG4671: {wanting: or, left undone}
If anyG1536 beG2076 blamelessG410, the husbandG435 of oneG3391 wifeG1135, havingG2192 faithfulG4103 childrenG5043 notG3361 accusedG1722+G2724 of riotG810 orG2228 unrulyG506.
InsomuchG1519 that weG2248 desiredG3870 TitusG5103, thatG2443 asG2531 he had begunG4278, soG3779 he wouldG2005 alsoG2532 finishG2005 inG1519 youG5209 the sameG5026 graceG5485 alsoG2532. {grace: or, gift}
ForG3754 indeedG3303 he acceptedG1209 the exhortationG3874; butG1161 beingG5225 more forwardG4707, of his own accordG830 he wentG1831 untoG4314 youG5209.
ForG3754 if I have boastedG2744 any thingG1536 to himG846 ofG5228 youG5216, I amG2617 notG3756 ashamedG2617; butG235 asG5613 we spakeG2980 all thingsG3956 to youG5213 inG1722 truthG225, evenG2532 soG3779 ourG2257 boastingG2746, whichG3588 I made beforeG1909 TitusG5103, is foundG1096 a truthG225.
I desiredG3870 TitusG5103, andG2532 with him I sentG4882 a brotherG80. DidG4122+G3387 TitusG5103 make a gainG4122 of youG5209? walked weG4043 notG3756 in the sameG846 spiritG4151? walked we notG3756 in the sameG846 stepsG2487?
AndG1161 afterG3326 the uproarG2351 was ceasedG3973, PaulG3972 calledG4341 unto him the disciplesG3101, andG2532 embracedG782 them, and departedG1831 for to goG4198 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109.
AndG1161 when he had gone overG1330 thoseG1565 partsG3313, andG2532 had givenG4183 themG846 muchG4183 exhortationG3870+G3056, he cameG2064 intoG1519 GreeceG1671,
AndG5037 there abodeG4160 threeG5140 monthsG3376. And when the JewsG5259+G2453 laidG1096 waitG1917 for himG846, as he was aboutG3195 to sailG321 intoG1519 SyriaG4947, he purposedG1096+G1106 to returnG5290 throughG1223 MacedoniaG3109.
AndG1161 there accompaniedG4902 himG846 intoG891 AsiaG773 SopaterG4986 of BereaG961; andG1161 of the ThessaloniansG2331, AristarchusG708 andG2532 SecundusG4580; andG2532 GaiusG1050 of DerbeG1190, andG2532 TimotheusG5095; andG1161 of AsiaG774, TychicusG5190 andG2532 TrophimusG5161.
TheseG3778 going beforeG4281 tarriedG3306 for usG2248 atG1722 TroasG5174.
AndG1161 weG2249 sailed awayG1602 fromG575 PhilippiG5375 afterG3326 the daysG2250 of unleavened breadG106, andG2532 cameG2064 untoG4314 themG846 toG1519 TroasG5174 inG891 fiveG4002 daysG2250; whereG3757 we abodeG1304 sevenG2033 daysG2250.
AndG1161 uponG1722 the firstG3391 day of the weekG4521, when the disciplesG3101 came togetherG4863 to breakG2806 breadG740, PaulG3972 preachedG1256 unto themG846, readyG3195 to departG1826 on the morrowG1887; andG5037 continuedG3905 his speechG3056 untilG3360 midnightG3317.
AndG1161 there wereG2258 manyG2425 lightsG2985 inG1722 the upper chamberG5253, whereG3757 they wereG2258 gathered togetherG4863.
AndG1161 there satG2521 inG1909 a windowG2376 a certainG5100 young manG3494 namedG3686 EutychusG2161, being fallenG2702 into a deepG901 sleepG5258: and as PaulG3972 was longG1909+G4119 preachingG1256, he sunk downG2702 withG575 sleepG5258, and fell downG2736+G4098 fromG575 the third loftG5152, andG2532 was taken upG142 deadG3498.
AndG1161 PaulG3972 went downG2597, and fell onG1968 himG846, andG2532 embracingG4843 him saidG2036, TroubleG2350 notG3361 yourselvesG2350; forG1063 hisG846 lifeG5590 isG2076 inG1722 himG846.
WhenG1161 heG305 therefore was come up againG305, andG2532 had brokenG2806 breadG740, andG2532 eatenG1089, andG5037 talkedG3656+G1909 a long whileG2425, even tillG891 break of dayG827, soG3779 he departedG1831.
AndG1161 they broughtG71 the young manG3816 aliveG2198, andG2532 wereG3870 notG3756 a littleG3357 comfortedG3870.
AndG1161 weG2249 went beforeG4281 toG1909 shipG4143, and sailedG321 untoG1519 AssosG789, thereG1564 intendingG3195 to take inG353 PaulG3972: forG1063 soG3779 had heG2258 appointedG1299, mindingG3195 himselfG846 to go afootG3978.
AndG1161 whenG5613 he metG4820 with usG2254 atG1519 AssosG789, we tookG353 himG846 inG353, and cameG2064 toG1519 MityleneG3412.
AndG2547 we sailedG636 thenceG2547, and cameG2658 the nextG1966 day over againstG481 ChiosG5508; andG1161 the nextG2087 day we arrivedG3846 atG1519 SamosG4544, andG2532 tarriedG3306 atG1722 TrogylliumG5175; and the nextG2192 day we cameG2064 toG1519 MiletusG3399.
ForG1063 PaulG3972 had determinedG2919 to sail byG3896 EphesusG2181, becauseG3704 heG846 wouldG1096 notG3361 spend the timeG5551 inG1722 AsiaG773: forG1063 he hastedG4692, ifG1487 it wereG2258 possibleG1415 for himG846, to beG1096 atG1519 JerusalemG2414 the dayG2250 of PentecostG4005.
AndG1161 fromG575 MiletusG3399 he sentG3992 toG1519 EphesusG2181, and calledG3333 the eldersG4245 of the churchG1577.
AndG1161 whenG5613 they were comeG3854 toG4314 himG846, he saidG2036 unto themG846, YeG5210 knowG1987, fromG575 the firstG4413 dayG2250 thatG575+G3739 I cameG1910 intoG1519 AsiaG773, after what mannerG4459 I have beenG1096 withG3326 youG5216 at allG3956 seasonsG5550,
ServingG1398 the LordG2962 withG3326 allG3956 humility of mindG5012, andG2532 with manyG4183 tearsG1144, andG2532 temptationsG3986, whichG3588 befellG4819 meG3427 byG1722 the lying in waitG1917 of the JewsG2453:
And howG5613 I kept backG5288 nothingG3762 that was profitableG4851 unto you, butG3361 have shewedG312 youG5213, andG2532 have taughtG1321 youG5209 publicklyG1219, andG2532 fromG2596 house to houseG3624,
TestifyingG1263 bothG5037 to the JewsG2453, and alsoG2532 to the GreeksG1672, repentanceG3341 towardG1519 GodG2316, andG2532 faithG4102 towardG1519 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
AndG2532 nowG3568, beholdG2400, IG1473 goG4198 boundG1210 in the spiritG4151 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419, notG3361 knowingG1492 the things that shall befallG4876 meG3427 thereG1722+G846:
SaveG4133 thatG3754 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 witnessethG1263 in everyG2596 cityG4172, sayingG3004 thatG3754 bondsG1199 andG2532 afflictionsG2347 abideG3306 meG3165. {abide me: or, wait for me}
ButG235 noneG3762 of these thingsG3056 move meG4160, neitherG3761 count IG2192 myG3450 lifeG5590 dearG5093 unto myselfG1683, soG5613 that I might finishG5048 myG3450 courseG1408 withG3326 joyG5479, andG2532 the ministryG1248, whichG3739 I have receivedG2983 ofG3844 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, to testifyG1263 the gospelG2098 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 nowG3568, beholdG2400, IG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 yeG5210 allG3956, amongG1722 whomG3739 I have goneG1330 preachingG2784 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, shall seeG3700 myG3450 faceG4383 no moreG3765.
WhereforeG1352 I takeG3143 youG5213 to recordG3143 thisG1722+G4594 dayG2250, thatG3754 IG1473 am pureG2513 fromG575 the bloodG129 of allG3956 men.
ForG1063 I haveG5288 notG3756+G3361 shunnedG5288 to declareG312 unto youG5213 allG3956 the counselG1012 of GodG2316.
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
ForG1063 IG1473 knowG1492 thisG5124, thatG3754 afterG3326 myG3450 departingG867 shall grievousG926 wolvesG3074 enter inG1525 amongG1519 youG5209, notG3361 sparingG5339 the flockG4168.
AlsoG2532 ofG1537 yourG5216 own selvesG846 shallG450 menG435 ariseG450, speakingG2980 perverse thingsG1294, to draw awayG645 disciplesG3101 afterG3694 themG846.
ThereforeG1352 watchG1127, and rememberG3421, thatG3754 by the space of three yearsG5148 I ceasedG3973 notG3756 to warnG3560 everyG1538 oneG1520 nightG3571 andG2532 dayG2250 withG3326 tearsG1144.
AndG2532 nowG3569, brethrenG80, I commendG3908 youG5209 to GodG2316, andG2532 to the wordG3056 of hisG846 graceG5485, whichG3588 is ableG1410 to build you upG2026, andG2532 to giveG1325 youG5213 an inheritanceG2817 amongG1722 allG3956 them which are sanctifiedG37.
I have covetedG1937 no man'sG3762 silverG694, orG2228 goldG5553, orG2228 apparelG2441.
YeaG1161, ye yourselvesG846 knowG1097, thatG3754 theseG3778 handsG5495 have ministeredG5256 unto myG3450 necessitiesG5532, andG2532 to them that wereG5607 withG3326 meG1700.
I have shewedG5263 youG5213 all thingsG3956, how thatG3754 soG3779 labouringG2872 ye oughtG1163 to supportG482 the weakG770, andG5037 to rememberG3421 the wordsG3056 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, howG3754 heG846 saidG2036, It isG2076 moreG3123 blessedG3107 to giveG1325 thanG2228 to receiveG2983.
AndG2532 when he had thusG5023 spokenG2036, heG846 kneeledG1119 downG5087, and prayedG4336 withG4862 themG846 allG3956.
AndG1161 they allG3956 weptG2805+G1096 soreG2425, andG2532 fellG1968 onG1909 Paul'sG3972 neckG5137, and kissedG2705 himG846,
SorrowingG3600 most of allG3122 forG1909 the wordsG3056 whichG3739 he spakeG2046, thatG3754 they shouldG3195 seeG2334 hisG846 faceG4383 no moreG3765. AndG1161 they accompaniedG4311 himG846 untoG1519 the shipG4143.
LetG2706 no manG3367 despiseG2706 thyG4675 youthG3503; butG235 be thouG1096 an exampleG5179 of the believersG4103, inG1722 wordG3056, inG1722 conversationG391, inG1722 charityG26, inG1722 spiritG4151, inG1722 faithG4102, inG1722 purityG47.
WhichG3739 alsoG2532 they didG4160, and sent itG649 toG4314 the eldersG4245 byG1223 the handsG5495 of BarnabasG921 andG2532 SaulG4569.
When thereforeG3767 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921 hadG1096 noG3756 smallG3641 dissensionG4714 andG2532 disputationG4803 withG4314 themG846, they determinedG5021 that PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921, andG2532 certainG5100 otherG243 ofG1537 themG846, should go upG305 toG1519 JerusalemG2419 untoG4314 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 aboutG4012 thisG5127 questionG2213.
AndG1161 when they were comeG3854 toG1519 JerusalemG2419, they were receivedG588 ofG5259 the churchG1577, andG2532 of the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, andG5037 they declaredG312 all thingsG3745 that GodG2316 had doneG4160 withG3326 themG846.
AndG1161 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245 came togetherG4863 for to considerG1492 ofG4012 thisG5127 matterG3056.
ThenG5119 pleased itG1380 the apostlesG652 andG2532 eldersG4245, withG4862 the wholeG3650 churchG1577, to sendG3992 chosenG1586 menG435 ofG1537 their own companyG846 toG1519 AntiochG490 withG4862 PaulG3972 andG2532 BarnabasG921; namely, JudasG2455 surnamedG1941 BarsabasG923, andG2532 SilasG4609, chiefG2233 menG435 amongG1722 the brethrenG80:
AndG1161 when they had ordainedG5500 themG846 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 churchG1577, and had prayedG4336 withG3326 fastingG3521, they commendedG3908 themG846 to the LordG2962, onG1519 whomG3739 they believedG4100.
HimG5126 wouldG2309 PaulG3972 have to go forthG1831 withG4862 himG846; andG2532 tookG2983 and circumcisedG4059 himG846 becauseG1223 of the JewsG2453 whichG3588 wereG5607 inG1722 thoseG1565 quartersG5117: forG1063 they knewG1492 allG537 thatG3754 hisG846 fatherG3962 wasG5225 a GreekG1672.
When I callG2983 to remembranceG5280 the unfeignedG505 faithG4102 that is inG1722 theeG4671, whichG3748 dweltG1774 firstG4412 inG1722 thyG4675 grandmotherG3125 LoisG3090, andG2532 thyG4675 motherG3384 EuniceG2131; andG1161 I am persuadedG3982 thatG3754 inG1722 theeG4671 alsoG2532.
AndG2532 thatG3754 fromG575 a childG1025 thou hast knownG1492 the holyG2413 scripturesG1121, whichG3588 are ableG1410 to makeG4679 theeG4571 wiseG4679 untoG1519 salvationG4991 throughG1223 faithG4102 whichG3588 is inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
NeglectG272 notG3361 the giftG5486 that is inG1722 theeG4671, whichG3739 was givenG1325 theeG4671 byG1223 prophecyG4394, withG3326 the laying onG1936 of the handsG5495 of the presbyteryG4244.
WhereforeG1223+G3739+G156 I putG363 theeG4571 in remembranceG363 that thou stir upG329 the giftG5486 of GodG2316, whichG3739 isG2076 inG1722 theeG4671 byG1223 the putting onG1936 of myG3450 handsG5495.
NotG3361 a noviceG3504, lestG3363 being lifted up with prideG5187 he fallG1706 intoG1519 the condemnationG2917 of the devilG1228. {a novice: or, one newly come to the faith}
AndG1161 fromG575 MiletusG3399 he sentG3992 toG1519 EphesusG2181, and calledG3333 the eldersG4245 of the churchG1577.
NeglectG272 notG3361 the giftG5486 that is inG1722 theeG4671, whichG3739 was givenG1325 theeG4671 byG1223 prophecyG4394, withG3326 the laying onG1936 of the handsG5495 of the presbyteryG4244.
WhereforeG1223+G3739+G156 I putG363 theeG4571 in remembranceG363 that thou stir upG329 the giftG5486 of GodG2316, whichG3739 isG2076 inG1722 theeG4671 byG1223 the putting onG1936 of myG3450 handsG5495.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 himselfG846 beganG756 to beG2258 aboutG5616 thirtyG5144 years of ageG2094, beingG5607 (asG5613 was supposedG3543) the sonG5207 of JosephG2501, which was the son of HeliG2242,
AndG2532 IG1473, brethrenG80, couldG1410 notG3756 speakG2980 unto youG5213 asG5613 unto spiritualG4152, butG235 asG5613 unto carnalG4559, even asG5613 unto babesG3516 inG1722 ChristG5547.
I have fedG4222 youG5209 with milkG1051, andG2532 notG3756 with meatG1033: forG1063 hithertoG3768 ye wereG1410 notG3768 ableG1410 to bear it, neitherG235+G3777 yetG2089 nowG3568 are ye ableG1410.
AndG2532 as Jesus passed byG3855, he sawG1492 a manG444 which was blindG5185 fromG1537 his birthG1079.
AndG2532 hisG846 disciplesG3101 askedG2065 himG846, sayingG3004, MasterG4461, whoG5101 did sinG264, this manG3778, orG2228 hisG846 parentsG1118, thatG2443 he was bornG1080 blindG5185?
JesusG2424 answeredG611, NeitherG3777 hathG264 this manG3778 sinnedG264, norG3777 hisG846 parentsG1118: butG235 thatG2443 the worksG2041 of GodG2316 should be made manifestG5319 inG1722 himG846.
IG1691 mustG1163 workG2038 the worksG2041 of him that sentG3992 meG3165, whileG2193 it isG2076 dayG2250: the nightG3571 comethG2064, whenG3753 no manG3762 canG1410 workG2038.
As long asG3752 I amG5600 inG1722 the worldG2889, I amG1510 the lightG5457 of the worldG2889.
When he had thusG5023 spokenG2036, he spatG4429 on the groundG5476, andG2532 madeG4160 clayG4081 ofG1537 the spittleG4427, andG2532 he anointedG2025+G1909 the eyesG3788 of the blind manG5185 with the clayG4081, {anointed…: or, spread the clay upon the eyes of the blind man}
AndG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, GoG5217, washG3538 inG1519 the poolG2861 of SiloamG4611, (whichG3739 is by interpretationG2059, SentG649.) He went his wayG565 thereforeG3767, andG2532 washedG3538, andG2532 cameG2064 seeingG991.
The neighboursG1069 thereforeG3767, andG2532 they which beforeG4386 had seenG2334 himG846 thatG3754 he wasG2258 blindG5185, saidG3004, IsG2076 notG3756 thisG3778 he that satG2521 andG2532 beggedG4319?
SomeG243 saidG3004+G3754, ThisG3778 is heG2076+G1161: othersG243 said,G3754 He isG2076 likeG3664 himG846: but heG1565 saidG3004+G3754, IG1473 amG1510 he.
ThereforeG3767 said theyG3004 unto himG846, HowG4459 wereG455 thineG4675 eyesG3788 openedG455?
HeG1565 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036, A manG444 that is calledG3004 JesusG2424 madeG4160 clayG4081, andG2532 anointedG2025 mineG3450 eyesG3788, andG2532 saidG2036 unto meG3427, GoG5217 toG1519 the poolG2861 of SiloamG4611, andG2532 washG3538: andG1161 I wentG565 andG2532 washedG3538, and I received sightG308.
ThenG3767 said theyG2036 unto himG846, WhereG4226 isG2076 heG1565? He saidG3004, I knowG1492 notG3756.
They broughtG71 toG4314 the PhariseesG5330 himG846 that aforetimeG4218 was blindG5185.
AndG1161 it wasG2258 the sabbath dayG4521 whenG3753 JesusG2424 madeG4160 the clayG4081, andG2532 openedG455 hisG846 eyesG3788.
ThenG3767 againG3825 the PhariseesG5330 alsoG2532 askedG2065 himG846 howG4459 he had received his sightG308+G1161. He saidG2036 unto themG846, He putG2007 clayG4081 uponG1909 mineG3450 eyesG3788, andG2532 I washedG3538, andG2532 do seeG991.
ThereforeG3767 saidG3004 someG5100 ofG1537 the PhariseesG5330, ThisG3778 manG444 isG2076 notG3756 ofG3844 GodG2316, becauseG3754 he keepethG5083 notG3756 the sabbath dayG4521. OthersG243 saidG3004, HowG4459 canG1410 a manG444 that is a sinnerG268 doG4160 suchG5108 miraclesG4592? AndG2532 there wasG2258 a divisionG4978 amongG1722 themG846.
They sayG3004 unto the blind manG5185 againG3825, WhatG5101 sayestG3004 thouG4771 ofG4012 himG846, thatG3754 he hath openedG455 thineG4675 eyesG3788? He saidG2036+G3754+G1161, He isG2076 a prophetG4396.
ButG3767 the JewsG2453 didG4100 notG3756 believeG4100 concerningG4012 himG846, thatG3754 he had beenG2258 blindG5185, andG2532 received his sightG308, untilG2193+G3755 they calledG5455 the parentsG1118 of himG846 that had received his sightG308.
AndG2532 they askedG2065 themG846, sayingG3004, IsG2076 thisG3778 yourG5216 sonG5207, whoG3739 yeG5210 sayG3004+G3754 was bornG1080 blindG5185? howG4459 thenG3767 doth heG991 nowG737 seeG991?
HisG846 parentsG1118 answeredG611 themG846 andG2532 saidG2036, We knowG1492 thatG3754 thisG3778 isG2076 ourG2257 sonG5207, andG2532 thatG3754 he was bornG1080 blindG5185:
ButG1161 by what meansG4459 heG991 nowG3568 seethG991, we knowG1492 notG3756; orG2228 whoG5101 hath openedG455 hisG846 eyesG3788, weG2249 knowG1492 notG3756: heG846 isG2192 of ageG2244; askG2065 himG846: heG846 shall speakG2980 forG4012 himselfG848.
TheseG5023 words spakeG2036 hisG846 parentsG1118, becauseG3754 they fearedG5399 the JewsG2453: forG1063 the JewsG2453 had agreedG4934 alreadyG2235, thatG2443 ifG1437 any manG5100 did confessG3670 that heG846 was ChristG5547, he should beG1096 put out of the synagogueG656.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 saidG2036 hisG846 parentsG1118+G3754, He isG2192 of ageG2244; askG2065 himG846.
ThenG3767 againG1208+G1537 called theyG5455 the manG444 thatG3739 wasG2258 blindG5185, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, GiveG1325 GodG2316 the praiseG1391: weG2249 knowG1492 thatG3754 thisG3778 manG444 isG2076 a sinnerG268.
HeG1565 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036, WhetherG1487 he beG2076 a sinnerG268 or no, I knowG1492 notG3756: one thingG1520 I knowG1492, thatG3754, whereas I wasG5607 blindG5185, nowG737 I seeG991.
ThenG1161 said theyG2036 to himG846 againG3825, WhatG5101 did heG4160 to theeG4671? howG4459 opened heG455 thineG4675 eyesG3788?
He answeredG611 themG846, I have toldG2036 youG5213 alreadyG2235, andG2532 ye didG191 notG3756 hearG191: whereforeG5101 wouldG2309 ye hearG191 it againG3825? willG3361+G2309 yeG5210 alsoG2532 beG1096 hisG846 disciplesG3101?
ThenG3767 they reviledG3058 himG846, andG2532 saidG2036, ThouG4771 artG1488 hisG1565 discipleG3101; butG1161 weG2249 areG2070 Moses'G3475 disciplesG3101.
WeG2249 knowG1492 thatG3754 GodG2316 spakeG2980 unto MosesG3475: as for thisG1161+G5126 fellow, we knowG1492 notG3756 from whenceG4159 he isG2076.
The manG444 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto themG846, WhyG1063 hereinG1722+G5129 isG2076 a marvellous thingG2298, thatG3754 yeG5210 knowG1492 notG3756 from whenceG4159 he isG2076, andG2532 yet he hath openedG455 mineG3450 eyesG3788.
NowG1161 we knowG1492 thatG3754 GodG2316 hearethG191 notG3756 sinnersG268: butG235 ifG1437 any manG5100 beG5600 a worshipper of GodG2318, andG2532 doethG4160 hisG846 willG2307, himG5127 he hearethG191.
SinceG1537 the world beganG165 was itG191 notG3756 heardG191 thatG3754 any manG5100 openedG455 the eyesG3788 of one that was bornG1080 blindG5185.
IfG1508 this manG3778 wereG2258 notG1508 ofG3844 GodG2316, he couldG1410+G3756 doG4160 nothingG3762.
They answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, ThouG4771 wastG1080 altogetherG3650 bornG1080 inG1722 sinsG266, andG2532 dost thouG4771 teachG1321 usG2248? AndG2532 they castG1544 himG846 outG1854. {cast…: or, excommunicated him}
JesusG2424 heardG191 thatG3754 they had castG1544 himG846 outG1854; andG2532 when he had foundG2147 himG846, he saidG2036 unto himG846, DostG4100 thouG4771 believeG4100 onG1519 the SonG5207 of GodG2316?
HeG1565 answeredG611 andG2532 saidG2036, WhoG5101 is heG2076, LordG2962, thatG2443 I might believeG4100 onG1519 himG846?
AndG1161 JesusG2424 saidG2036 unto himG846, Thou hastG3708 bothG2532 seenG3708 himG846, andG2532 it isG2076 heG1565 that talkethG2980 withG3326 theeG4675.
AndG1161 he saidG5346, LordG2962, I believeG4100. AndG2532 he worshippedG4352 himG846.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 saidG2036, ForG1519 judgmentG2917 IG1473 am comeG2064 intoG1519 thisG5126 worldG2889, thatG2443 they which seeG991 notG3361 might seeG991; andG2532 that they which seeG991 might be madeG1096 blindG5185.
AndG2532 some ofG1537 the PhariseesG5330 whichG3588 wereG5607 withG3326 himG846 heardG191 these wordsG5023, andG2532 saidG2036 unto himG846, AreG3361+G2070 weG2249 blindG5185 alsoG2532?
JesusG2424 saidG2036 unto themG846, IfG1487 ye wereG2258 blindG5185, ye shouldG302 haveG2192 noG3756 sinG266: butG1161 nowG3568 ye sayG3004+G3754, We seeG991; thereforeG3767 yourG5216 sinG266 remainethG3306.
I have more understandingH7919 than all my teachersH3925: for thy testimoniesH5715 are my meditationH7881.
This is a trueG4103 sayingG3056, If a manG1536 desireG3713 the office of a bishopG1984, he desirethG1937 a goodG2570 workG2041.
And the womanH802 bareH3205 a sonH1121, and calledH7121 his nameH8034 SamsonH8123: and the childH5288 grewH1431, and the LORDH3068 blessedH1288 him.
And the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068 beganH2490 to move him at timesH6470 in the campH4264 of DanH1835 between ZorahH6881 and EshtaolH847. {the camp…: Heb. Mahanehdan}
ButG1161 watchG3525 thouG4771 inG1722 all thingsG3956, endure afflictionsG2553, doG4160 the workG2041 of an evangelistG2099, make full proofG4135 of thyG4675 ministryG1248. {make…: or, fulfil}
Then saidH559 I, AhH162, LordH136 GODH3069! behold, I cannotH3045 speakH1696: for I am a childH5288.
FromG575 that time forthG5119 beganG756 JesusG2424 to shewG1166 unto hisG846 disciplesG3101, how thatG3754 heG846 mustG1163 goG565 untoG1519 JerusalemG2414, andG2532 sufferG3958 many thingsG4183 ofG575 the eldersG4245 andG2532 chief priestsG749 andG2532 scribesG1122, andG2532 be killedG615, andG2532 be raised againG1453 the thirdG5154 dayG2250.
AndG2532 they ledG520 JesusG2424 awayG520 toG4314 the high priestG749: andG2532 with himG846 were assembledG4905 allG3956 the chief priestsG749 andG2532 the eldersG4245 andG2532 the scribesG1122.
AndG2532 it came to passG1096, that onG1722 oneG3391 of thoseG1565 daysG2250, as heG846 taughtG1321 the peopleG2992 inG1722 the templeG2411, andG2532 preached the gospelG2097, the chief priestsG749 andG2532 the scribesG1122 came uponG2186 him withG4862 the eldersG4245,
RebukeG1969 notG3361 an elderG4245, butG235 intreatG3870 him asG5613 a fatherG3962; and the younger menG3501 asG5613 brethrenG80;
The elder womenG4245 asG5613 mothersG3384; the youngerG3501 asG5613 sistersG79, withG1722 allG3956 purityG47.
LikewiseG3668, ye youngerG3501, submit yourselvesG5293 unto the elderG4245. YeaG1161, allG3956 of you be subjectG5293 one to anotherG240, and be clothedG1463 with humilityG5012: forG3754 GodG2316 resistethG498 the proudG5244, andG1161 givethG1325 graceG5485 to the humbleG5011.
NowG1161 hisG846 elderG4245 sonG5207 wasG2258 inG1722 the fieldG68: andG2532 asG5613 he cameG2064 and drew nighG1448 to the houseG3614, he heardG191 musickG4858 andG2532 dancingG5525.
Them that sinG264 rebukeG1651 beforeG1799 allG3956, thatG2443 othersG3062 alsoG2532 mayG2192 fearG5401.
LetG2706 no manG3367 despiseG2706 thyG4675 youthG3503; butG235 be thouG1096 an exampleG5179 of the believersG4103, inG1722 wordG3056, inG1722 conversationG391, inG1722 charityG26, inG1722 spiritG4151, inG1722 faithG4102, inG1722 purityG47.
ButG1161 the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 isG2076 loveG26, joyG5479, peaceG1515, longsufferingG3115, gentlenessG5544, goodnessG19, faithG4102,
MoreoverG1161, brethrenG80, we doG1107 youG5213 to witG1107 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316 bestowedG1325 onG1722 the churchesG1577 of MacedoniaG3109;
How thatG3754 inG1722 a greatG4183 trialG1382 of afflictionG2347 the abundanceG4050 of theirG846 joyG5479 andG2532 theirG846 deepG899 povertyG2596+G4432 aboundedG4052 untoG1519 the richesG4149 of theirG846 liberalityG572. {liberality: Gr. simplicity}
ForG3754 toG2596 their powerG1411, I bear recordG3140, yea, andG2532 beyondG5228 their powerG1411 they were willing of themselvesG830;
PrayingG1189 usG2257 withG3326 muchG4183 intreatyG3874 that weG2248 would receiveG1209 the giftG5485, andG2532 take upon us the fellowshipG2842 of the ministeringG1248 toG1519 the saintsG40.
AndG2532 this they did, notG3756 asG2531 we hopedG1679, butG235 firstG4412 gaveG1325 their own selvesG1438 to the LordG2962, andG2532 unto usG2254 byG1223 the willG2307 of GodG2316.
InsomuchG1519 that weG2248 desiredG3870 TitusG5103, thatG2443 asG2531 he had begunG4278, soG3779 he wouldG2005 alsoG2532 finishG2005 inG1519 youG5209 the sameG5026 graceG5485 alsoG2532. {grace: or, gift}
ThereforeG235, asG5618 ye aboundG4052 inG1722 everyG3956 thing, in faithG4102, andG2532 utteranceG3056, andG2532 knowledgeG1108, andG2532 in allG3956 diligenceG4710, andG2532 in yourG5216 loveG26+G1537 toG1722 usG2254, see thatG2443 ye aboundG4052 inG1722 thisG5026 graceG5485 alsoG2532.
I speakG3004 notG3756 byG2596 commandmentG2003, butG235 by occasionG1223 of the forwardnessG4710 of othersG2087, andG2532 to proveG1381 the sincerityG1103 of yourG5212 loveG26.
ForG1063 ye knowG1097 the graceG5485 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, thatG3754, though he wasG5607 richG4145, yet forG1223 yourG5209 sakesG1223 he became poorG4433, thatG2443 yeG5210 through hisG1565 povertyG4432 might be richG4147.
AndG2532 hereinG1722+G5129 I giveG1325 my adviceG1106: forG1063 thisG5124 is expedientG4851 for youG5213, whoG3748 have begun beforeG4278, notG3756 onlyG3440 to doG4160, butG235 alsoG2532 to be forwardG2309 a yearG4070 agoG575. {forward: Gr. willing}
NowG3570+G1161 thereforeG2532 performG2005 the doingG4160 of it; thatG3704 asG2509 there was a readinessG4288 to willG2309, soG3779 there may be a performanceG2005 alsoG2532 out ofG1537 that which ye haveG2192.
ForG1063 if thereG1487 be firstG4295 a willing mindG4288, it is acceptedG2144 according toG2526 thatG1437 a manG5100 hathG2192, and notG3756 according to thatG2526 he hathG2192 notG3756.
ForG1063 I mean notG3756 thatG2443 other menG243 be easedG425, andG1161 yeG5213 burdenedG2347:
ButG235 byG1537 an equalityG2471, that nowG3568 atG1722 this timeG2540 yourG5216 abundanceG4051 may be a supply forG1519 theirG1565 wantG5303, thatG2443 theirG1565 abundanceG4051 alsoG2532 may beG1096 a supply forG1519 yourG5216 wantG5303: thatG3704 there may beG1096 equalityG2471:
AsG2531 it is writtenG1125, He that had gatheredG3588 muchG4183 hadG4121 nothingG3756 overG4121; andG2532 he that had gatheredG3588 littleG3641 hadG1641 noG3756 lackG1641.
ButG1161 thanksG5485 be to GodG2316, whichG3588 putG1325 the sameG846 earnest careG4710 intoG1722 the heartG2588 of TitusG5103 forG5228 youG5216.
ForG3754 indeedG3303 he acceptedG1209 the exhortationG3874; butG1161 beingG5225 more forwardG4707, of his own accordG830 he wentG1831 untoG4314 youG5209.
AndG1161 we have sentG4842 withG3326 himG846 the brotherG80, whoseG3739 praiseG1868 is inG1722 the gospelG2098 throughoutG1223 allG3956 the churchesG1577;
AndG1161 notG3756 that onlyG3440, butG235 who wasG5500 alsoG2532 chosenG5500 ofG5259 the churchesG1577 to travelG4898 with usG2257 withG4862 thisG5026 graceG5485, whichG3588 is administeredG1247 byG5259 usG2257 toG4314 the gloryG1391 of the sameG846 LordG2962, andG2532 declaration of yourG5216 ready mindG4288: {grace: or, gift}
AvoidingG4724 thisG5124, that noG3361 manG5100 should blameG3469 usG2248 inG1722 thisG5026 abundanceG100 whichG3588 is administeredG1247 byG5259 usG2257:
ProvidingG4306 for honest thingsG2570, notG3756 onlyG3440 in the sightG1799 of the LordG2962, butG235 alsoG2532 in the sightG1799 of menG444.
AndG1161 we have sentG4842 with themG846 ourG2257 brotherG80, whomG3739 we haveG1381 oftentimesG4178 provedG1381+G5607 diligentG4705 inG1722 many thingsG4183, butG1161 nowG3570 muchG4183 more diligentG4707, upon the greatG4183 confidenceG4006 whichG3588 I have inG1519 youG5209. {I have: or, he hath}
WhetherG1535 any do enquire ofG5228 TitusG5103, he is myG1699 partnerG2844 andG2532 fellowhelperG4904 concerningG1519 youG5209: orG1535 ourG2257 brethrenG80 be enquired of, they are the messengersG652 of the churchesG1577, and the gloryG1391 of ChristG5547.
WhereforeG3767 shew yeG1731 toG1519 themG846, andG2532 beforeG1519+G4383 the churchesG1577, the proofG1732 of yourG5216 loveG26, andG2532 of ourG2257 boastingG2746 onG5228 yourG5216 behalfG5228.
AndG2532 JesusG2424 himselfG846 beganG756 to beG2258 aboutG5616 thirtyG5144 years of ageG2094, beingG5607 (asG5613 was supposedG3543) the sonG5207 of JosephG2501, which was the son of HeliG2242,
AndG1161 we beseechG2065 youG5209, brethrenG80, to knowG1492 them whichG3588 labourG2872 amongG1722 youG5213, andG2532 are overG4291 youG5216 inG1722 the LordG2962, andG2532 admonishG3560 youG5209;
AndG1161 afterG3326 the uproarG2351 was ceasedG3973, PaulG3972 calledG4341 unto him the disciplesG3101, andG2532 embracedG782 them, and departedG1831 for to goG4198 intoG1519 MacedoniaG3109.
AndG1161 when he had gone overG1330 thoseG1565 partsG3313, andG2532 had givenG4183 themG846 muchG4183 exhortationG3870+G3056, he cameG2064 intoG1519 GreeceG1671,
AndG5037 there abodeG4160 threeG5140 monthsG3376. And when the JewsG5259+G2453 laidG1096 waitG1917 for himG846, as he was aboutG3195 to sailG321 intoG1519 SyriaG4947, he purposedG1096+G1106 to returnG5290 throughG1223 MacedoniaG3109.
AndG1161 there accompaniedG4902 himG846 intoG891 AsiaG773 SopaterG4986 of BereaG961; andG1161 of the ThessaloniansG2331, AristarchusG708 andG2532 SecundusG4580; andG2532 GaiusG1050 of DerbeG1190, andG2532 TimotheusG5095; andG1161 of AsiaG774, TychicusG5190 andG2532 TrophimusG5161.
TheseG3778 going beforeG4281 tarriedG3306 for usG2248 atG1722 TroasG5174.
AndG1161 weG2249 sailed awayG1602 fromG575 PhilippiG5375 afterG3326 the daysG2250 of unleavened breadG106, andG2532 cameG2064 untoG4314 themG846 toG1519 TroasG5174 inG891 fiveG4002 daysG2250; whereG3757 we abodeG1304 sevenG2033 daysG2250.
AndG1161 uponG1722 the firstG3391 day of the weekG4521, when the disciplesG3101 came togetherG4863 to breakG2806 breadG740, PaulG3972 preachedG1256 unto themG846, readyG3195 to departG1826 on the morrowG1887; andG5037 continuedG3905 his speechG3056 untilG3360 midnightG3317.
AndG1161 there wereG2258 manyG2425 lightsG2985 inG1722 the upper chamberG5253, whereG3757 they wereG2258 gathered togetherG4863.
AndG1161 there satG2521 inG1909 a windowG2376 a certainG5100 young manG3494 namedG3686 EutychusG2161, being fallenG2702 into a deepG901 sleepG5258: and as PaulG3972 was longG1909+G4119 preachingG1256, he sunk downG2702 withG575 sleepG5258, and fell downG2736+G4098 fromG575 the third loftG5152, andG2532 was taken upG142 deadG3498.
AndG1161 PaulG3972 went downG2597, and fell onG1968 himG846, andG2532 embracingG4843 him saidG2036, TroubleG2350 notG3361 yourselvesG2350; forG1063 hisG846 lifeG5590 isG2076 inG1722 himG846.
WhenG1161 heG305 therefore was come up againG305, andG2532 had brokenG2806 breadG740, andG2532 eatenG1089, andG5037 talkedG3656+G1909 a long whileG2425, even tillG891 break of dayG827, soG3779 he departedG1831.
AndG1161 they broughtG71 the young manG3816 aliveG2198, andG2532 wereG3870 notG3756 a littleG3357 comfortedG3870.
AndG1161 weG2249 went beforeG4281 toG1909 shipG4143, and sailedG321 untoG1519 AssosG789, thereG1564 intendingG3195 to take inG353 PaulG3972: forG1063 soG3779 had heG2258 appointedG1299, mindingG3195 himselfG846 to go afootG3978.
AndG1161 whenG5613 he metG4820 with usG2254 atG1519 AssosG789, we tookG353 himG846 inG353, and cameG2064 toG1519 MityleneG3412.
AndG2547 we sailedG636 thenceG2547, and cameG2658 the nextG1966 day over againstG481 ChiosG5508; andG1161 the nextG2087 day we arrivedG3846 atG1519 SamosG4544, andG2532 tarriedG3306 atG1722 TrogylliumG5175; and the nextG2192 day we cameG2064 toG1519 MiletusG3399.
ForG1063 PaulG3972 had determinedG2919 to sail byG3896 EphesusG2181, becauseG3704 heG846 wouldG1096 notG3361 spend the timeG5551 inG1722 AsiaG773: forG1063 he hastedG4692, ifG1487 it wereG2258 possibleG1415 for himG846, to beG1096 atG1519 JerusalemG2414 the dayG2250 of PentecostG4005.
AndG1161 fromG575 MiletusG3399 he sentG3992 toG1519 EphesusG2181, and calledG3333 the eldersG4245 of the churchG1577.
AndG1161 whenG5613 they were comeG3854 toG4314 himG846, he saidG2036 unto themG846, YeG5210 knowG1987, fromG575 the firstG4413 dayG2250 thatG575+G3739 I cameG1910 intoG1519 AsiaG773, after what mannerG4459 I have beenG1096 withG3326 youG5216 at allG3956 seasonsG5550,
ServingG1398 the LordG2962 withG3326 allG3956 humility of mindG5012, andG2532 with manyG4183 tearsG1144, andG2532 temptationsG3986, whichG3588 befellG4819 meG3427 byG1722 the lying in waitG1917 of the JewsG2453:
And howG5613 I kept backG5288 nothingG3762 that was profitableG4851 unto you, butG3361 have shewedG312 youG5213, andG2532 have taughtG1321 youG5209 publicklyG1219, andG2532 fromG2596 house to houseG3624,
TestifyingG1263 bothG5037 to the JewsG2453, and alsoG2532 to the GreeksG1672, repentanceG3341 towardG1519 GodG2316, andG2532 faithG4102 towardG1519 ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.
AndG2532 nowG3568, beholdG2400, IG1473 goG4198 boundG1210 in the spiritG4151 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419, notG3361 knowingG1492 the things that shall befallG4876 meG3427 thereG1722+G846:
SaveG4133 thatG3754 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 witnessethG1263 in everyG2596 cityG4172, sayingG3004 thatG3754 bondsG1199 andG2532 afflictionsG2347 abideG3306 meG3165. {abide me: or, wait for me}
ButG235 noneG3762 of these thingsG3056 move meG4160, neitherG3761 count IG2192 myG3450 lifeG5590 dearG5093 unto myselfG1683, soG5613 that I might finishG5048 myG3450 courseG1408 withG3326 joyG5479, andG2532 the ministryG1248, whichG3739 I have receivedG2983 ofG3844 the LordG2962 JesusG2424, to testifyG1263 the gospelG2098 of the graceG5485 of GodG2316.
AndG2532 nowG3568, beholdG2400, IG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 yeG5210 allG3956, amongG1722 whomG3739 I have goneG1330 preachingG2784 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, shall seeG3700 myG3450 faceG4383 no moreG3765.
WhereforeG1352 I takeG3143 youG5213 to recordG3143 thisG1722+G4594 dayG2250, thatG3754 IG1473 am pureG2513 fromG575 the bloodG129 of allG3956 men.
ForG1063 I haveG5288 notG3756+G3361 shunnedG5288 to declareG312 unto youG5213 allG3956 the counselG1012 of GodG2316.
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
ForG1063 IG1473 knowG1492 thisG5124, thatG3754 afterG3326 myG3450 departingG867 shall grievousG926 wolvesG3074 enter inG1525 amongG1519 youG5209, notG3361 sparingG5339 the flockG4168.
AlsoG2532 ofG1537 yourG5216 own selvesG846 shallG450 menG435 ariseG450, speakingG2980 perverse thingsG1294, to draw awayG645 disciplesG3101 afterG3694 themG846.
ThereforeG1352 watchG1127, and rememberG3421, thatG3754 by the space of three yearsG5148 I ceasedG3973 notG3756 to warnG3560 everyG1538 oneG1520 nightG3571 andG2532 dayG2250 withG3326 tearsG1144.
AndG2532 nowG3569, brethrenG80, I commendG3908 youG5209 to GodG2316, andG2532 to the wordG3056 of hisG846 graceG5485, whichG3588 is ableG1410 to build you upG2026, andG2532 to giveG1325 youG5213 an inheritanceG2817 amongG1722 allG3956 them which are sanctifiedG37.
I have covetedG1937 no man'sG3762 silverG694, orG2228 goldG5553, orG2228 apparelG2441.
YeaG1161, ye yourselvesG846 knowG1097, thatG3754 theseG3778 handsG5495 have ministeredG5256 unto myG3450 necessitiesG5532, andG2532 to them that wereG5607 withG3326 meG1700.
I have shewedG5263 youG5213 all thingsG3956, how thatG3754 soG3779 labouringG2872 ye oughtG1163 to supportG482 the weakG770, andG5037 to rememberG3421 the wordsG3056 of the LordG2962 JesusG2424, howG3754 heG846 saidG2036, It isG2076 moreG3123 blessedG3107 to giveG1325 thanG2228 to receiveG2983.
AndG2532 when he had thusG5023 spokenG2036, heG846 kneeledG1119 downG5087, and prayedG4336 withG4862 themG846 allG3956.
AndG1161 they allG3956 weptG2805+G1096 soreG2425, andG2532 fellG1968 onG1909 Paul'sG3972 neckG5137, and kissedG2705 himG846,
SorrowingG3600 most of allG3122 forG1909 the wordsG3056 whichG3739 he spakeG2046, thatG3754 they shouldG3195 seeG2334 hisG846 faceG4383 no moreG3765. AndG1161 they accompaniedG4311 himG846 untoG1519 the shipG4143.
This is a trueG4103 sayingG3056, If a manG1536 desireG3713 the office of a bishopG1984, he desirethG1937 a goodG2570 workG2041.
A bishopG1985 thenG3767 mustG1163 beG1511 blamelessG423, the husbandG435 of oneG3391 wifeG1135, vigilantG3524, soberG4998, of good behaviourG2887, given to hospitalityG5382, apt to teachG1317; {of good…: or, modest}
NotG3361 given to wineG3943, noG3361 strikerG4131, notG3361 greedy of filthy lucreG146; butG235 patientG1933, not a brawlerG269, not covetousG866; {given…: or, ready to quarrel, and offer wrong, as one in wine}
One that rulethG4291 wellG2573 his ownG2398 houseG3624, havingG2192 his childrenG5043 inG1722 subjectionG5292 withG3326 allG3956 gravityG4587;
(ForG1161 if a manG1536 knowG1492 notG3756 howG1492 to ruleG4291 his ownG2398 houseG3624, howG4459 shall he take care ofG1959 the churchG1577 of GodG2316?)
NotG3361 a noviceG3504, lestG3363 being lifted up with prideG5187 he fallG1706 intoG1519 the condemnationG2917 of the devilG1228. {a novice: or, one newly come to the faith}
MoreoverG1161+G2532 heG846 mustG1163 haveG2192 a goodG2570 reportG3141 ofG575 them which are withoutG1855; lestG3363 he fallG1706 intoG1519 reproachG3680 andG2532 the snareG3803 of the devilG1228.
For thisG5127 causeG5484 left IG2641 theeG4571 inG1722 CreteG2914, thatG2443 thou shouldest set in orderG1930 the things that are wantingG3007, andG2532 ordainG2525 eldersG4245 in everyG2596 cityG4172, asG5613 IG1473 had appointedG1299 theeG4671: {wanting: or, left undone}
If anyG1536 beG2076 blamelessG410, the husbandG435 of oneG3391 wifeG1135, havingG2192 faithfulG4103 childrenG5043 notG3361 accusedG1722+G2724 of riotG810 orG2228 unrulyG506.
ForG1063 a bishopG1985 mustG1163 beG1511 blamelessG410, asG5613 the stewardG3623 of GodG2316; notG3361 selfwilledG829, notG3361 soon angryG3711, notG3361 given to wineG3943, noG3361 strikerG4131, notG3361 given to filthy lucreG146;
ButG235 a lover of hospitalityG5382, a lover of good menG5358, soberG4998, justG1342, holyG3741, temperateG1468; {men: or, things}
Holding fastG472 the faithfulG4103 wordG3056 asG2596 he hath been taughtG1322, thatG2443 he may beG5600 ableG1415 byG1722 soundG5198 doctrineG1319 bothG2532 to exhortG3870 andG2532 to convinceG1651 the gainsayersG483. {as…: or, in teaching}
NowG1161 concerningG4012 the things whereofG3739 ye wroteG1125 unto meG3427: It is goodG2570 for a manG444 notG3361 to touchG680 a womanG1135.
NeverthelessG1223+G1161, to avoid fornicationG4202, letG2192 every manG1538 haveG2192 his ownG1438 wifeG1135, andG2532 letG2192 every womanG1538 haveG2192 her ownG2398 husbandG435.
LetG591 the husbandG435 renderG591 unto the wifeG1135 dueG3784 benevolenceG2133: andG1161 likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the wifeG1135 unto the husbandG435.
The wifeG1135 hathG1850 notG3756 powerG1850 of her ownG2398 bodyG4983, butG235 the husbandG435: andG1161 likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 the husbandG435 hathG1850 notG3756 powerG1850 of his ownG2398 bodyG4983, butG235 the wifeG1135.
Defraud yeG650 notG3361 one the otherG240, exceptG1509+G302 it beG5100 withG1537 consentG4859 forG4314 a timeG2540, thatG2443 ye may give yourselvesG4980 to fastingG3521 andG2532 prayerG4335; andG2532 comeG4905 togetherG1909+G846 againG3825, thatG3363 SatanG4567 temptG3985 youG5209 notG3363 forG1223 yourG5216 incontinencyG192.
ButG1161 I speakG3004 thisG5124 byG2596 permissionG4774, and notG3756 ofG2596 commandmentG2003.
ForG1063 I wouldG2309 that allG3956 menG444 wereG1511 evenG2532 asG5613 I myselfG1683. ButG235 every manG1538 hathG2192 his properG2398 giftG5486 ofG1537 GodG2316, oneG3739+G3303 after this mannerG3779, andG1161 anotherG3739 after thatG3779.
I sayG3004 thereforeG1161 to the unmarriedG22 andG2532 widowsG5503, It isG2076 goodG2570 for themG846 ifG1437 they abideG3306 evenG2504 asG5613 IG2504.
ButG1161 ifG1487 theyG1467 cannotG3756 containG1467, let them marryG1060: forG1063 it isG2076 betterG2909 to marryG1060 thanG2228 to burnG4448.
AndG1161 unto the marriedG1060 I commandG3853, yet notG3756 IG1473, butG235 the LordG2962, LetG5563 notG3361 the wifeG1135 departG5563 fromG575 her husbandG435:
ButG1161 andG2532 ifG1437 she departG5563, let her remainG3306 unmarriedG22, orG2228 be reconciledG2644 to her husbandG435: andG2532 letG863 notG3361 the husbandG435 put awayG863 his wifeG1135.
ButG1161 to the restG3062 speakG3004 IG1473, notG3756 the LordG2962: If anyG1536 brotherG80 hathG2192 a wifeG1135 that believeth notG571, andG2532 sheG846 be pleasedG4909 to dwellG3611 withG3326 himG846, let himG863 notG3361 putG863 herG846 awayG863.
AndG2532 the womanG1135 whichG3748 hathG2192 an husbandG435 that believeth notG571, andG2532 if heG846 be pleasedG4909 to dwellG3611 withG3326 herG846, let herG863 notG3361 leaveG863 himG846.
ForG1063 the unbelievingG571 husbandG435 is sanctifiedG37 byG1722 the wifeG1135, andG2532 the unbelievingG571 wifeG1135 is sanctifiedG37 byG1722 the husbandG435: elseG686+G1893 wereG2076 yourG5216 childrenG5043 uncleanG169; butG1161 nowG3568 are theyG2076 holyG40.
ButG1161 ifG1487 the unbelievingG571 departG5563, let him departG5563. A brotherG80 orG2228 a sisterG79 isG1402 notG3756 under bondageG1402 inG1722 suchG5108 cases: butG1161 GodG2316 hath calledG2564 usG2248 toG1722 peaceG1515. {to peace: Gr. in peace}
ForG1063 whatG5101 knowest thouG1492, O wifeG1135, whetherG1487 thou shalt saveG4982 thy husbandG435? orG2228 howG5101 knowest thouG1492, O manG435, whetherG1487 thou shalt saveG4982 thy wifeG1135? {how: Gr. what}
ButG1508 asG5613 GodG2316 hath distributedG3307 to every manG1538, asG5613 the LordG2962 hath calledG2564 every oneG1538, soG3779 let him walkG4043. AndG2532 soG3779 ordain IG1299 inG1722 allG3956 churchesG1577.
IsG2564 any manG5100 calledG2564 being circumcisedG4059? let himG1986 notG3361 become uncircumcisedG1986. IsG2564 anyG5100 calledG2564 inG1722 uncircumcisionG203? let himG4059 notG3361 be circumcisedG4059.
CircumcisionG4061 isG2076 nothingG3762, andG2532 uncircumcisionG203 isG2076 nothingG3762, butG235 the keepingG5084 of the commandmentsG1785 of GodG2316.
LetG3306 every manG1538 abideG3306 inG1722 the sameG5026 callingG2821 whereinG1722+G3739 he was calledG2564.
Art thou calledG2564 being a servantG1401? careG3199+G4671 notG3361 for itG3199: butG235 ifG1499 thou mayestG1410 be madeG1096 freeG1658, useG5530 it ratherG3123.
ForG1063 he that is calledG2564 inG1722 the LordG2962, being a servantG1401, isG2076 the Lord'sG2962 freemanG558: likewiseG3668 alsoG2532 he that is calledG2564, being freeG1658, isG2076 Christ'sG5547 servantG1401. {freeman: Gr. made free}
Ye are boughtG59 with a priceG5092; beG1096 notG3361 yeG1096 the servantsG1401 of menG444.
BrethrenG80, letG3306 every manG1538, whereinG1722+G3739 he is calledG2564, thereinG1722+G5129 abideG3306 withG3844 GodG2316.
NowG1161 concerningG4012 virginsG3933 I haveG2192 noG3756 commandmentG2003 of the LordG2962: yetG1161 I giveG1325 my judgmentG1106, asG5613 one that hath obtained mercyG1653 ofG5259 the LordG2962 to beG1511 faithfulG4103.
I supposeG3543 thereforeG3767 that thisG5124 isG5225 goodG2570 forG1223 the presentG1764 distressG318, I say, thatG3754 it is goodG2570 for a manG444 soG3779 to beG1511. {distress: or, necessity}
Art thou boundG1210 unto a wifeG1135? seekG2212 notG3361 to be loosedG3080. Art thou loosedG3089 fromG575 a wifeG1135? seekG2212 notG3361 a wifeG1135.
ButG1161 andG2532 ifG1437 thou marryG1060, thou hastG264 notG3756 sinnedG264; andG2532 ifG1437 a virginG3933 marryG1060, she hathG264 notG3756 sinnedG264. NeverthelessG1161 suchG5108 shall haveG2192 troubleG2347 in the fleshG4561: butG1161 IG1473 spareG5339 youG5216.
ButG1161 thisG5124 I sayG5346, brethrenG80, the timeG2540 is shortG4958: it remainethG2076+G3063, thatG2443 bothG2532 they that haveG2192 wivesG1135 beG5600 as thoughG5613 they hadG2192 noneG3361;
AndG2532 they that weepG2799, asG5613 though they weptG2799 notG3361; andG2532 they that rejoiceG5463, asG5613 though they rejoicedG5463 notG3361; andG2532 they that buyG59, asG5613 though they possessedG2722 notG3361;
AndG2532 they that useG5530 thisG5127 worldG2889, asG5613 notG3361 abusingG2710 it: forG1063 the fashionG4976 of thisG5129 worldG2889 passeth awayG3855.
ButG1161 I would haveG1511+G2309 youG5209 without carefulnessG275. He that is unmarriedG22 carethG3309 for the things that belong toG3588 the LordG2962, howG4459 he may pleaseG700 the LordG2962: {that belong…: Gr. of the Lord}
ButG1161 he that is marriedG1060 carethG3309 for the things that areG3588 of the worldG2889, howG4459 he may pleaseG700 his wifeG1135.
There is difference also betweenG3307 a wifeG1135 andG2532 a virginG3933. The unmarried womanG22 careth forG3309 the thingsG3588 of the LordG2962, thatG2443 she may beG5600 holyG40 bothG2532 in bodyG4983 andG2532 in spiritG4151: butG1161 she that is marriedG1060 carethG3309 for the thingsG3588 of the worldG2889, howG4459 she may pleaseG700 her husbandG435.
AndG1161 thisG5124 I speakG3004 forG4314 yourG5216 ownG846 profitG4851; notG3756 thatG2443 I may castG1911 a snareG1029 upon youG5213, butG235 for that whichG4314 is comelyG2158, andG2532 that ye may attend uponG2145 the LordG2962 without distractionG563.
ButG1161 if any manG1536 thinkG3543 that he behaveth himself uncomelyG807 towardG1909 hisG846 virginG3933, ifG1437 she pass the flower of her ageG5230+G5600, andG2532 needG3784 soG3779 requireG1096, let him doG4160 whatG3739 he willG2309, he sinnethG264 notG3756: let them marryG1060.
NeverthelessG1161 heG3739 that standethG2476 stedfastG1476 inG1722 his heartG2588, havingG2192 noG3361 necessityG318, butG1161 hathG2192 powerG1849 overG4012 his ownG2398 willG2307, andG2532 hathG2919 soG5124 decreedG2919 inG1722 hisG846 heartG2588 that he will keepG5083 hisG1438 virginG3933, doethG4160 wellG2573.
SoG5620 thenG2532 he that giveth her in marriageG1547 doethG4160 wellG2573; butG1161 he that giveth herG1547 notG3361 in marriageG1547 doethG4160 betterG2908.
The wifeG1135 is boundG1210 by the lawG3551+G1909 as longG5550 asG3745 herG846 husbandG435 livethG2198; butG1161 ifG1437 herG846 husbandG435 be deadG2837, she isG2076 at libertyG1658 to be marriedG1060 to whomG3739 she willG2309; onlyG3440 inG1722 the LordG2962.
ButG1161 she isG2076 happierG3107 ifG1437 sheG3306 soG3779 abideG3306, afterG2596 myG1699 judgmentG1106: andG1161 I thinkG1380 alsoG2504 that I haveG2192 the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316.
BeG1096 yeG3402 thereforeG3767 followersG3402 of GodG2316, asG5613 dearG27 childrenG5043;
AndG2532 walkG4043 inG1722 loveG26, asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 hath lovedG25 usG2248, andG2532 hath givenG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 usG2257 an offeringG4376 andG2532 a sacrificeG2378 to GodG2316 forG1519 a sweetsmellingG2175 savourG3744.
ButG2532 fornicationG4202, andG1161 allG3956 uncleannessG167, orG2228 covetousnessG4124, let itG3687 not be onceG3366 namedG3687 amongG1722 youG5213, asG2531 becomethG4241 saintsG40;
NeitherG2532 filthinessG151, norG2532 foolish talkingG3473, norG2228 jestingG2160, whichG3588 areG433 notG3756 convenientG433: butG235 ratherG3123 giving of thanksG2169.
ForG1063 thisG5124 ye knowG2075+G1097, thatG3754 noG3756+G3956 whoremongerG4205, norG2228 unclean personG169, norG2228 covetous manG4123, whoG3739 isG2076 an idolaterG1496, hathG2192 any inheritanceG2817 inG1722 the kingdomG932 of ChristG5547 andG2532 of GodG2316.
LetG538 no manG3367 deceiveG538 youG5209 with vainG2756 wordsG3056: forG1063 becauseG1223 of these thingsG5023 comethG2064 the wrathG3709 of GodG2316 uponG1909 the childrenG5207 of disobedienceG543. {disobedience: or, unbelief}
BeG1096 notG3361 yeG1096 thereforeG3767 partakersG4830 with themG846.
ForG1063 ye wereG2258 sometimesG4218 darknessG4655, butG1161 nowG3568 are ye lightG5457 inG1722 the LordG2962: walkG4043 asG5613 childrenG5043 of lightG5457:
(ForG1063 the fruitG2590 of the SpiritG4151 is inG1722 allG3956 goodnessG19 andG2532 righteousnessG1343 andG2532 truthG225;)
ProvingG1381 whatG5101 isG2076 acceptableG2101 unto the LordG2962.
AndG2532 haveG4790 noG3361 fellowshipG4790 with the unfruitfulG175 worksG2041 of darknessG4655, butG1161 ratherG3123+G2532 reproveG1651 them.
ForG1063 it isG2076 a shameG149 evenG2532 to speakG3004 of those thingsG2931 which are doneG1096 ofG5259 themG846 in secretG2931.
ButG1161 all thingsG3956 that are reprovedG1651 are made manifestG5319 byG5259 the lightG5457: forG1063 whatsoeverG3956 doth make manifestG5319 isG2076 lightG5457. {reproved: or, discovered}
WhereforeG1352 he saithG3004, Awake thouG1453 that sleepestG2518, andG2532 ariseG450 fromG1537 the deadG3498, andG2532 ChristG5547 shall giveG2017 theeG4671 lightG2017. {he: or, it}
SeeG991 thenG3767 thatG4459 ye walkG4043 circumspectlyG199, notG3361 asG5613 foolsG781, butG235 asG5613 wiseG4680,
RedeemingG1805 the timeG2540, becauseG3754 the daysG2250 areG1526 evilG4190.
WhereforeG1223+G5124 be yeG1096 notG3361 unwiseG878, butG235 understandingG4920 whatG5101 the willG2307 of the LordG2962 is.
AndG2532 beG3182 notG3361 drunkG3182 with wineG3631, whereinG1722+G3739 isG2076 excessG810; butG235 be filledG4137 withG1722 the SpiritG4151;
SpeakingG2980 to yourselvesG1438 in psalmsG5568 andG2532 hymnsG5215 andG2532 spiritualG4152 songsG5603, singingG103 andG2532 making melodyG5567 inG1722 yourG5216 heartG2588 to the LordG2962;
Giving thanksG2168 alwaysG3842 forG5228 all thingsG3956 unto GodG2316 andG2532 the FatherG3962 inG1722 the nameG3686 of ourG2257 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547;
Submitting yourselvesG5293 one to anotherG240 inG1722 the fearG5401 of GodG2316.
WivesG1135, submit yourselvesG5293 unto your ownG2398 husbandsG435, asG5613 unto the LordG2962.
ForG3754 the husbandG435 isG2076 the headG2776 of the wifeG1135, evenG2532 asG5613 ChristG5547 is the headG2776 of the churchG1577: andG2532 heG846 isG2076 the saviourG4990 of the bodyG4983.
ThereforeG235 asG5618 the churchG1577 is subjectG5293 unto ChristG5547, soG3779+G2532 let the wivesG1135 be to their ownG2398 husbandsG435 inG1722 every thingG3956.
HusbandsG435, loveG25 yourG1438 wivesG1135, even asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the churchG1577, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 itG846;
ThatG2443 heG846 might sanctifyG37 and cleanse itG2511 with the washingG3067 of waterG5204 byG1722 the wordG4487,
ThatG2443 he might presentG3936 itG846 to himselfG1438 a gloriousG1741 churchG1577, notG3361 havingG2192 spotG4696, orG2228 wrinkleG4512, orG2228 anyG5100 such thingG5108; butG235 thatG2443 it should beG5600 holyG40 andG2532 without blemishG299.
SoG3779 oughtG3784 menG435 to loveG25 theirG1438 wivesG1135 asG5613 their ownG1438 bodiesG4983. He that lovethG25 hisG1438 wifeG1135 lovethG25 himselfG1438.
ForG1063 no manG3762 ever yetG4218 hatedG3404 his ownG1438 fleshG4561; butG235 nourishethG1625 andG2532 cherishethG2282 itG846, even asG2531+G2532 the LordG2962 the churchG1577:
ForG3754 we areG2070 membersG3196 of hisG846 bodyG4983, ofG1537 hisG846 fleshG4561, andG2532 ofG1537 hisG846 bonesG3747.
ForG473 this causeG5127 shallG2641 a manG444 leaveG2641 hisG846 fatherG3962 andG2532 motherG3384, andG2532 shall be joinedG4347 untoG4314 hisG846 wifeG1135, andG2532 they twoG1417 shall beG2071 oneG1519+G3391 fleshG4561.
ThisG5124 isG2076 a greatG3173 mysteryG3466: butG1161 IG1473 speakG3004 concerningG1519 ChristG5547 andG1519+G2532 the churchG1577.
NeverthelessG4133+G2532 letG25 every oneG1520+G1538 of youG5210 in particularG2596 soG3779 loveG25 hisG1438 wifeG1135 even asG5613 himselfG1438; andG1161 the wifeG1135 see thatG2443 she reverenceG5399 her husbandG435.
AllG3956 scriptureG1124 is given by inspiration of GodG2315, andG2532 is profitableG5624 forG4314 doctrineG1319, forG4314 reproofG1650, forG4314 correctionG1882, forG4314 instructionG3809 inG1722 righteousnessG1343:
LetG2706 no manG3367 despiseG2706 thyG4675 youthG3503; butG235 be thouG1096 an exampleG5179 of the believersG4103, inG1722 wordG3056, inG1722 conversationG391, inG1722 charityG26, inG1722 spiritG4151, inG1722 faithG4102, inG1722 purityG47.
